Since the crazy winter weather doesn’t show signs of letting up any time soon, Daisy and I put together this roundup of dog sweaters we think you and your big dog are sure to love. And if you’ve got a small to medium size dog, visit the links to check the sizes, because many of the sweaters below are also available for your more petite pooches as well!

Have you been invited to an Ugly Christmas Sweater party this holiday season? Even though it sounds really fun, we live in South Florida and have NO desire to wear hot and heavy sweaters when it’s 80 degrees outside! I was searching for something lighter but still keeping with the theme and found some super CUTE t-shirts, tank tops and sweatshirts designed in the style of ugly Christmas sweaters.

I especially love the “Meowy Christmas” design on these fun holiday shirts and they come in blue, green, red, black, pink and a few other colors…it varies by which style and size you get. I think these look like a super comfortable and affordable twist on the traditional ugly sweater trend!
